Windows 10 - Tried reinstalling the wallet once - will try again. Just to confirm the only folder needed is keystore ?

Yelp, probably just need to re-download the blockchain to get the benefits of the recent fixes.

reinstall the wallet. worked for me.

Operating system would help?

Hello,
Hoping someone can assist me - I have been stuck on block 2675264 for a little over a week now. I noticed Poloniex had some issues over thanksgiving with eth as well. Is there a wallet update I am missing?

The only question now is when will ETHF bagholders dump their bags and run for cover?

Yelp, Geth and Mist is back to being quickest crypto

New blocks are syncing at old lightening fast speed.

Did a fresh install to test, basic download on Linux at 9.9GB finished in 1 hour 25 minutes and afterwards the new blocks are syncing up really quickly.

Parity is now super-fast syncing new blocks with the Mist wallet: the new Warp Sync feature (literally under 1 minute).

Published details: https://github.com/ethcore/parity/wiki/Warp-Sync

Changed the terminal command on Linux to add it the new feature:

parity --warp --geth --cache 1024

It has to be seen, to be believed

Great work from all the hard working developers, thank you for early Xmas present

Lol, look at ICN/ETH on Kraken.

Sell:   42750
Buy: 272825


This small cake gets soon eaten completely

Very nice. Back to old hights then

Well done ETH devs....

If it does not have PoW, it does not have support from the miners. The user community will be reduced. So it might be like other failed PoS coins.

Pos is the final nail in the coffin

Next stop...Metropolis

Only price is dropping etherum working.

Anyone in here can be confirming if this news was true?

It already runs, or that was being a new fork.

Mission accomplished, thanks!

Well, it is not Logic, but I'll assume you are referring to Maths logic, as opposed to the Logic related too philosophy.

In terms of electricity:

As the proportion paid in electricity as percentage of the coin value increases, there is corresponding decrease in profitability - eventually achieving 0 profitability. This is because over-investment in hardware versus affordability of running cost has been miscalculated by the owner of mining rigs. Consequently, they are forced into overselling their mining rewards in coins and this drives the price of the coin downwards towards 0 profitability.  

So, with mining with GPU's - over the long-run it will head towards 0 profitability.

The underlying basis of GPU mining, therefore, you approach it in the same fashion as what you can afford to buy comfortable each month with cash for that crypto.

Consequently, nearly all Proof-Of-Work coins can go through long periods of low profitability or 0 profitability in relation to age of the mining hardware and electricity.

Finally, Ethereum has the highest number of new people investing and mining it - it was a one-off investment opportunity.

For the 1st time, in a long time a large number of crypto businesses and entrepreneurs and developers and enthusiasts came together to build a new crypto-currency pre-funded with 28 million dollars, yuan, roubles, yen, euros, etc.

So, that is not going to happen, again, for a very long-time again.

So with that logic.. only people that have mined for X months will have some.. so new people are SOL......     

also, we have to sell the eth to pay for power!

That makes no sense!

You can't mine dollars, pounds, yuan, yen, roubles, euros etc - yet, people still use those currencies.

Then, on the other side of the equation people were able to mine ETH with GPU's for 1 year 6 months.

So, most people wouldn't make such a ridiculous statement, because they've had ample opportunity to mine and build up a decent amount of ETH to use in the long-term.
